A brand new podcast presented by columnist, writer and presenter Jackie Adedeji which celebrates black talent on-screen and behind-the-scenes in TV.
The series which is named after the iconic James Brown song “Say it Loud, I’m Black & I’m Proud’’ is a trauma no-go zone with the narrative for Black creatives and television talent shaped by racial trauma, or trauma being the headline or the soundbite, and Say it Loud spins it on its head. It is about all things unapologetically positively Black and British: the culture we shape, that we represent, that we create in this country.
